Bigger and better this year, which was our fourth year in a row. Hundreds of stalls and tens of thousands of people. They actually block off the main street (which is also the highway) and line both sides of the street with stalls and rides and entertainment.
At various points down the street are different artists entertaining the crowds. Country music with dancers performing rocknroll, rockabilly and line dancing, Jamaican music, Egyptian music with belly dancers, and then a much bigger stage down one of the side streets with a steady stream of bands and entertainment.
The Twine were performing again this year and they always draw a big crowd. They were contestants on Australia's Got Talent in 2010, and they have a lot of energy on stage. I even considered getting up for a dance ... and I am NOT a dancer!
After they finished, a quartet of young girls performed. Beautiful voices and such talent with their instruments. They have already won a major award (the Golden Fiddle) at Tamworth Country Music Festival and they were also contestants on the New Young Talent Time.

| Despite how they appear in this photo, they were happy and high energy performers |
The crowd was very appreciative.
... and I loved this piece of artwork
... I reckon I could create something like this myself ... I LOVE trees and I would love a big colourful tree to put on the wall above the bed.
We were home just after lunch, but we had a great time and I love that every year, after we get home, I immediately begin looking forward to next year.
Right now, I'm looking forward to bed.
Nite all.
